What prompted you to go the C Corp route?

They now use "Dave" to handle customer inquiries efficiently and promptly. 

Some key qualities to look for include:- **Responsive communication**: A PM company that keeps you in the loop and addresses issues promptly- **Local expertise**: Knowledge of the Birmingham market and experience with Section 8 tenants.- **Proactive maintenance**: Regular inspections and quick resolution of maintenance issues to keep tenants happy and properties in good condition- **Transparent reporting**: Clear and detailed financial reports so you know exactly where your money is goingIf your current PM isn’t meeting these standards, it might be worth exploring other options.

I got a very good price on the building (about $25k per door), but it was a ton of work as in addition to tenant issues, there was TONS of physical distress (foundation repairs, sewer line and water line repairs, electrical upgrades, new roof, and apartment renovations needed for all units). 

This was an Oct 15th acquisition and took about 2 months to clean out and repair/rehab. 

After both parties sign the lease, the tenant receives an email prompting them to log in to their portal and pay their balance.

Hi Trent, thanks for your prompt reply.

I have some upcoming repairs needed that outweigh the Homestead Exemption and plan to make my primary home a long term rental in the next 7 years but the repairs can’t wait.  

For example do you have a great w2 and can you afford to cover costs of a major repair or 3 months of vacancy?

Assume break even cash flow while rented which includes a generous $600/mo repair fund.
